Three Lebanese charged in Nigeria with plotting attacks on Israel and Western interests

One of the three confessed to being a member of Hizballah. They were arrested in Kano, northern Nigeria’s biggest town, between May 16 and May 28, together with enough weapons for an army – a cache including anti-aircraft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades at one address, and 14 AK-47 rifles, 11,000 rounds of ammo and scores of explosive devices, at another.
